Comfort and Friendship | St Martins New Brunswick Canada

Isn't it beautiful... so serene... so peaceful? 

The salty air made breathing so easy. 

When it is but the natural thing to do:  

To close your eyes and deeply inhale, 

fill your chest with air,

Feel every wind that goes through you;

Then release the air through your lips ever so slowly,

while you gently open your eyes,

To see winsome blue skies

and stout white clouds.

Ah!  What a view.

The cold breeze,

that kisses your face with a warm welcome;

The ripples on the waters, 

that seem to wave towards you;

Boats just floating about in place... 

An atmosphere that inspires meditative thoughts.  

There were no other people around, 

they're hiding from the bitter cold maybe... 

Or perhaps just starting their day a little late.

So your focus turns into the laughter 

of your dear friends fooling around,

taking a million pictures of each other

and of the scene,

in every possible angle.

The smiles, the jokes, the familiar faces;

a tap on the shoulders now,

a little jab later;

Every word echos camaraderie:

A familiar comfort neither time nor space erased.

 It is about the place,

a beauty and serenity that could fill the soul;

And then it is about the people,

the love and friendship that fills the void;

Makes an otherwise ordinary day

into something unforgettable. 

Late autumn of last year, we had the privilege of visits from some of our dear old friends from miles away.  We took the time to drive to some places we haven't been, to enjoy the view and the time together.  Please come and walk with us in this charming little village of St Martins here in my new home of New Brunswick.
